Sorry I havent written in awhile guys, I've been pretty busy! I recently moved away to school! Exciting! I am now living at Salisbury University. However, the campus is pretty dead at the moment. I moved to school 3 days early because I am cheering! In 2 more days i'll get to meet all the friends I made on facebook, and meet everyone in my dorm.
But im super exhausted from cheer camp today. Hope you enjoyed the update. Btw Daren is doing pretty well :)

Prayers
I need everyone's help. Daren recently lost a good friend due to this stupid situation we call a war. His name was Paul Cazzupe II. I know Paul's family could use some thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Also, here's the link for his facebook memorial page. You may not have known Paul, but it'd be nice for everyone to leave a nice thought. RIP Paul Cazzupe II Also, send some thoughts and prayers out to Daren. He's having a hard time dealing with this and I know he would appreciate the support.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Answered prayers
I had an interesting evening the other night. I know all of us have had those moments, where in our soul we feel as though something has gone wrong. Well, that's how I was feeling the other night. Even though in my head I knew nothing was wrong and that everything was going to be fine, I had a knot in my stomach and a lump in my throat.
I layed in bed for about an hour or so, wondering if he was okay. I hate being helpless. It's one of my least favorite feelings in the entire world. I better get used to it; i've been nothing but helpless since this deployment started. Not to mention, when you're in a shitty mood, it forces you to think about all the shittyness in your life.
I was basically on the verge of tears, when something amazing happened. God answered my prayers. I get a phone call from him at 1:30 in the morning. AHHHHHH. It's one of those moments that truly makes you feel as though God is listening and looking out for you. I had this cheesy ass grin on my face the entire conversation.
Daren's one of those guys who can make me laugh without even trying. He's the kind of guy who knows exactly what to say to make me smile and to make me happy. He's slightly insecure in a good way; in the way that makes me know he's scared to lose me. He likes to be reminded that I love him, and that I'm his forever. He's just humble enough that it makes you appreciate it. Most of all, he's the most amazing man I could have ever asked God for. He's the man of my dreams. No he's not prince charming, but who the fuck need's prince charming when you can have a soldier.
When we hung up the phone, I felt like the weight of the world had been lifted from my shoulders. I was finally able to get some sleep; and I dreamt of the amazing life I have to look forward to with him.
I love you. Always and forever. Always.

Day 2 - Letter to my crush... aka Daren :)
Dear baby/booboo/darebear/honey/sweetie/love of my life,
There are no possible words to express the way that i feel about you. You tell me all the time that I deserve someone way better than you, and I laugh at how humble you are. You are the most amazing man I have ever met in my entire life, and I thank god every day for bringing you into my life. I've never met anyone who I can be so comfortable and carefree around. You bring me out of my shell, and most of all you love me.
If I sat down and told you everything I love about you, it would take me the rest of my life to get to the end of that list. But here's a good start, your eyes, your smile, your dimples, your head after its been shaved, your hand intertwined in mine, your kisses, when you give me raspberries, the way you attempt to give me a hickey, that doesnt usually work out ;), the way you look in your ACU's, the way you twitch when you're starting to fall asleep, your hornyness, the way you tackle me on my bed, but most of all, the way you love me.
"This isn't the life I chose. But I'd never give it up." Even though I have my days when I want to kill someone, the days when I miss you so much I could sit on my bed for hours and do nothing but cry, the days where I would rather die than go another minute without you by my side, I love this life and everything it brings. I cannot wait for the day I see you get down on one knee and ask me for my hand in marriage. I cannot wait to spend every day of the rest of my life wrapped up in your arms. I cannot wait to have our 4 beautiful children :).
I love you with all my heart and soul. Always and forever. Always<3
Love,
Amber Leigh

Day 1 - Letter to my best friend
No names will be placed in these post's. Go ahead and guess if you like.
Dear best friend,
We've been through a lot, especially lately. Our relationship has kind of gone down hill lately, and I'm not sure our friendship is going to make it through the fire. You helped me to open up about my problems, and convinced me to tell someone, someone that could actually help me through my depression. I entrusted in you, my deepest, darkest, most painful secrets, and you loved me anyways. I'm sure you have no idea that I have cried more times than I could probably remember over our friendship. I've always been the friend to put in the effort to make plans. I'm the one who always starts the conversations. And in the end, I'm the one who is hurt over never seeing each other, and never talking. I would go to the ends of the earth to be there for you, and yet I don't feel that I would get the same support in return. I understand that we move on in life, and people drift apart, but this is a friendship that breaks my heart to see dissolve. However, I am a fond believer in the saying, "don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened". You'll always be my best friend based on the fact that I love you, and you know the secrets of my life, that just about no one else knows. However, I can't keep hurting myself over someone who doesn't come around.
Love,
Amber
